About us

Dear bodybuilding fans,

this website is used as a non commercial activity of bodybuilding fans. Unfortunately we have not had enough time to translate our articles into English, that is why we only have short previews available as an introduction to our activities. Our subtitel "O kulturistice trochu jinak" means Bodybuilding in a different manner...

Authors from foreign countries are welcome. We are able to translate articles from English and German. We prefer marginal topics on bodybuilding in relation to other sports. We also deal with the history of bodybuilding and weight training of handicapped people. We will be happy to publish controversial opinions too. Do not hesitate to contact us.

To increase our activity in the Czech and Slovak market next year, we are looking for foreign partners with experience in publishing (internet and non-internet publishing) similar topics. Potential partners can be private persons or newspapers and online magazines.
